DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Aviation Administration
Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments;
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Anti-Drug
Program for Personnel Engaged in Specified Aviation Activities
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice and request for comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA
invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew an information
collection. Information is collected to determine program compliance or
non-compliance of regulated aviation employers, oversight planning, to
determine who must provide annual Management Information System testing
information, and to communicate with entities subject to the program
regulations. This notice corrects a reference within a notice for
public comment that was published on Monday, May 20, 2013 (78 FR
29427). That notice cited the regulation for drug and alcohol testing
as 14 CFR Part 121, appendices I and J. Effective July 13, 2009, that
regulation is now a part of 14 CFR Part 120.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted by July 23, 2013.
ADDRESSES: Send comments to the FAA at the following address: Ms. Kathy
DePaepe, Room 126B, Federal Aviation Administration, AES-200, 6500 S.
MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma City, OK 73169.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathy DePaepe at (405) 954-9362, or by
email at: [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 2120-0535.
Title: Anti-Drug Program for Personnel Engaged in Specified
Aviation Activities
Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this
collection of information.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
Background: The FAA mandates specified aviation entities to conduct
drug and alcohol testing under its regulations, Drug and Alcohol
Testing Program (14 CFR Part 120), 49 U.S.C .31306 (Alcohol and
controlled substances testing), and the Omnibus Transportation Employee
Testing Act of 1991 (the Act). The FAA uses information collected for
determining program compliance or non-compliance of regulated aviation
employers, oversight planning, determining who must provide annual MIS
testing information, and communicating with entities subject to the
program regulations. In addition, the information is used to ensure
that appropriate action is taken in regard to crew members and other
safety-sensitive employees who have tested positive for drugs or
alcohol, or have refused to submit to testing.
Respondents: Approximately 7,000 affected entities annually.
Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 5 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 22,902 hours.
Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d)
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of
the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information
collection.
Issued in Washington, DC, on May 20, 2013.
